You spend more time on youtube to find relevant content. Sadly, probably that is also their goal. More video, more viewed ads.

I meant move on as thinking, not switching a job. I’m working in an enviroment where are limited options to switch. Dealing with it, as you don’t do it. As others also wrote about bad actors. You cannot go on a path where you won’t find any. From my point and experience, sometimes you shouldn’t care. If you don’t like 5% of your coworkers or just one, thats totally fine. But if I want to go further, you may not dislike them. They are just not the same. I don’t think the only way is some scientific/psycholgical explanation to get over with them.

Edit: I switched because of this, taking the risk, it’s worth it. At the current place I got another bad actor, but we could manage these differences.

Or just move on. There are some situations or people where “smart” approach doesn’t solve anything. The article has good points. If we understand others, we can handle things easier, but also can be lost in the dark. It takes time and energy, some cases doesn’t worth the quest.

So preinstalled software is ok, till your market share is below 50 percent?

I never forget the IE war, when everybody complain about the preinstalled browser. And that time they called "monopolistic practices". At apple, they even don't know what these words mean... /s

While I checked this tweet it takes 69 requests. Also noticed, when my computer turned off, it does 0 requests.

It wasn't a very bad idea, the implementation was. I still miss a tool, somewehere between email and chat. Basecamp has something like this, where you have topics (threads), members (recepients) and a simple message sending like a forum, without the downsides of a chat.

You know, when the message is "this is not a facebook product", because some people confused about it and you post an "unoffical" announcement on facebook, then maybe it's not a good PR.

Completely agree. But if you read something like this, you notice there will be a failure...

> but all the stories of success from Techcrunch, the accelerator Y Combinator, and the Facebook movie combined and fed in to my fantasies that somehow through sheer will and my own brain power I could achieve similar success

Maybe just me, but getting inspired by Mark its the first mistake you could do.

Simply, they can't create the next big thing outside of facebook. That's why they bought things.
